My Approach to Helping
My approach to therapy is strongly relational with an emphasis on your internal world and psychological development. I am in my fourteenth year of private practice and I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, loss & grief, life transition and relationship difficulties. I enjoy growth-oriented therapy that focuses on both emotional and spiritual issues. My goal is to provide a safe and caring environment where you can feel connected, speak honestly and discover ways to solve problems as well as bring about emotional freedom and psychological growth. I have lived in Europe and traveled widely outside the United States and have developed an understanding of cross-cultural issues.

 

More Info About My Practice
I am an in-network provider with PHCS/MultiPlan Insurance Companies. For these companies and for most out-of-network companies, I will bill directly to your insurance plan for you. Please call me to discuss fees and co-pays.

 

Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With

Clients often tell me that I have a calming effect when they feel overwhelmed by depression, anxiety or relationship difficulties. I am able to sit with a person in distress or pain in a non-judgmental way and I am a good listener. People feel very free to be open and share their concerns with me.
